Rear Heated Window Switch - Lights
Currently with the lights on, the Rear Heated Window Switch glows green when it is off... as it should.

When I press the switch on, the light goes off. Which is a bit annoying, trying to find the switch in the dark to turn it back off. I am assuming it shouldn't do this?

Does the switch change colour when its on? or should it still be green?

Also can it be disassembled easily or is it a solid item? Chris

There is a small orange led to the right which should illuminate when the screen is on. As well as the light on the instrument cluster. Sounds like you have an earth problem somwhere Thumbs Up 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

Cheers Gratfy.

Ok I'll have a look at the earth. It illuminates fine when the lights are on and the switch is off. Chris

Can verify that what was previously posted is correct. Check grounding issues. Also the switch can be completely disassembled if need be. 2010 Range Rover MkIII Autobiography Super Charged (Idris)
